My Thomas Boyd family arrived in Baltimore during Apr-Jun of 1830. From there they travelled to Pittsburgh and finally to Holmes County, OH. The family included the 87-year old grandfather (Thomas), the 50-year old son (Thomas) and his wife and family of six children, ages 4-13. Somewhere between 1830 and Nov 1832 both of the older men died; neither of them came to Holmes County; the farm was bought by Sarah's (the wife) brother in Sarah's name. The boys and youngest daughter stayed in Holmes County but the other three girls and their husbands went to Iroquois County, IL. Several of their descendants went to Iowa (surname Lawhead).
